In the shadowy realms of DC’s Absolute Universe, a reimagined Wonder Woman emerges from the depths of darkness. This isn’t your typical Amazonian tale. Picture a Princess Diana shaped by the fiery pits of Hell, battling demons and defying expectations in a bold new storyline. The enigmatic Absolute Wonder Woman series promises to unravel a myth as old as time, retold with a sinister twist.
The Gateway City Arrival
The brainchild of writer Kelly Thompson and artist Hayden Sherman, Absolute Wonder Woman #1 springs to life in Gateway City. An inverted mountain hovers over the skyline, unleashing a flurry of winged terrors. Amidst this chaos rides our heroine atop a skeletal Pegasus, a fierce defender of the innocent. Her entrance marks a thrilling new chapter for DC’s iconic character.
In a city paralyzed with fear, Diana bursts forth, wielding her extraordinary powers. The opening scenes encapsulate a world teetering on the brink of doom. Readers glimpse nine electrifying pages, showcasing the art that brings Diana’s struggle to vivid life. The illustrations from Hayden Sherman capture the raw energy and eerie ambiance of this high-stakes battle.
A Uniquely Crafted Universe
Diving deeper into the Absolute Universe, this series redefines beloved characters with fresh perspectives. Whereas Absolute Batman explores a version of the hero with a single surviving parent, Absolute Wonder Woman presents a Diana isolated from her Amazonian kin. This twist becomes a key enigma fueling the narrative.
Among these radical shifts, one aspect remains undeniably captivating: Diana’s evolution from warrior to witch. This Wonder Woman conjures spells and taps into the darkest magicks. She’s a sorceress of unparalleled might, daringly treading the path of mysticism. Her magic-laden arsenal is set to redefine the boundaries of heroism.
Scheduled to hit comic shops on October 23, 2024, Absolute Wonder Woman #1 promises to be a groundbreaking addition to your collection. This series invites readers to explore the heart of its reinvented universe. Prepare for a Wonder Woman narrative as starkly vibrant as it is defiant.
